Abstract
Description

- Recently, research capability has been concentrated on national key scientific technologies from a basic science field up to applied science field. Particularly, various researches into the development of a key original technology associated with diagnosis and treatment of diseases, which is a main interest in bio-medical research fields, have been conducted at home and aboard. In researches into a technology of identifying and finding proteins related to diseases in a novel drug industry field and a bio-life science field, a separating and identifying step of proteins is an essential basic technology and has been importantly used to diagnose, treat, and prevent hard-to-cure diseases such as cancer in the overall research into life science fields. Currently, research into a technology of performing a two-dimensional separation process on each of the protein mixtures using two-dimensional electrophoresis (2DE) or multi-dimensional liquid chromatography analysis of proteins extracted from a normal person and a cancer patient, performing a recovery and enzyme treatment process, and then performing qualitative and quantitative evaluation on two samples using tandem mass spectrometry to thereby find a disease specific protein biomarker has been conducted at home and aboard as a research method through proteomics.
- Meanwhile, an enzyme treatment process for various proteins recovered through a multi-dimensional separation process is an essential protein pre-treatment process in a proteomics research field based on a mass spectrometer. In the enzyme treatment process for proteins, after performing a denaturation and alkylation/reduction process on serum, cell lysates, or the like, proteins may be digested into peptides by a reaction process at 37° C. for 12 to 18 using enzymes such as trypsin, LYs-C, or the like. Then, qualitative and quantitative analysis may be performed on the peptides using nanoflow liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization-tandem mass spectrometry (nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS) through a primary separation process of the peptide mixture recovered through the enzyme treatment process according to hydrophobicity of the peptides and a secondary mass spectrometry using a tandem mass spectrometer. A series of enzyme treatment processes for protein as described above may be a most basic and important sample pre-treatment process for proteomic research, but there is a disadvantage in that the enzyme treatment process has a large influence on qualitative and quantitative analysis for standard protein due to complexity and low reproducibility of a conventional enzyme pre-treatment process.

FIG. 1 is a view showing an entire structural feature of an on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor, which is an enzyme treatment apparatus using a hollow fiber membrane according to the present invention. - In more detail, a coupling structure of the hollow fiber membrane and injection/discharge tubings is shown in an upper portion of
FIG. 1 , and the hollow fiber membrane importantly considered in the present invention and a module for the hollow fiber membrane designed for smooth movement of peptides passing through the hollow fiber membrane to the discharge tubing is shown in a lower portion ofFIG. 1 . Particularly, in order to enable all of the injected proteins and enzymes to move through the hollow fiber membrane, a discharge hole portion of the hollow fiber membrane is closed by epoxy. A structural feature of the enzyme treatment apparatus is that an injection hole of the hollow fiber membrane is connected to an injection hole of the module, but a discharge hole of the hollow fiber membrane is not connected but closed. -
FIG. 2 shows the entire structure in which the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor corresponding to the enzyme treatment apparatus using a hollow fiber membrane according to the present invention is connected to a shotgun proteomics analyzer for peptide analysis using conventional nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS, and this structure may be variously changed according to application fields. -
FIG. 2 shows a characteristic structure in which a micro pump capable of being controlled at a flow rate of 10 μl/min or less for movement and injection of protein or enzyme and an sample injector (or autosampler) capable of on-line injecting the protein and enzyme are connected to the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor. Particularly, flow paths of all of channels are operated using a 10-port valve for on-line multi-dimensional separation in the present invention, but the flow path may be adjusted suitable for features of an experiment. - The protein and enzyme injected by the micro pump and the sample injector are digested into peptides in the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor, which is the enzyme treatment apparatus using a hollow fiber membrane according to the present invention, and pass through the hollow fiber membrane. Thereafter, the passed peptides move to a reverse trapping column connected to the 10-port valve, such that a on-line concentration and desalting process of the peptides may be performed.
- The peptides concentrated in the reverse trapping column are finally separated by a reverse C18 column according to degrees of hydrophobicity of the peptides by changing a channel of the 10-port valve so as to be connected to a flow of the nanoflow binary pump shown in
FIG. 2 , and then, information on the peptides may be obtained through the tandem mass spectrometer. However, this configuration may be changed according to application fields. - A recovery method of multi-dimensional peptides formed through a structure standard and enzyme reaction of the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor as the enzyme treatment apparatus using a hollow fiber membrane according to the present invention and a proteomics mass spectrometry for the proteins recovered by the recovered method will be described in detail with reference to
FIGS. 1 and 2 . - Proteins or glycoproteins and enzymes are injected into a hollow fiber membrane having a volume of about 10 μl shown in
FIG. 1 at a flow rate of 5 μl/min by the micro pump and the sample injector. In this case, the collected proteins in the enzymatic reactor need to be easily denatured by using 50 mM ammonium bicarbonate containing 10 mM dithiothreitol (DTT) heated to 37° C. as a solvent. However, a composition and temperature adjustment of a protein denaturation solvent according to the present invention are not limited, and a solvent composition of the existing column heater or capable of denaturizing protein may be used. Particularly, a flow rate of the solvent used to move the protein may be adjusted suitable for a volume and characteristics of the hollow fiber membrane used in the enzymatic reactor. - A structural feature of the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor is that a capillary pipe having an inner diameter of 100 to 200 mm and an outer diameter of 360 mm is used as the injection and discharge tubings used for injection and discharge of the proteins and enzymes in the present invention. However, all kinds of tubings capable of being used in movement of the solvent channel may be used, but it is preferable that a tubing having a small inner diameter is used for smooth movement and recovery of proteins and enzymes.
- In order to fix the hollow fiber membrane and the injection tubing shown in
FIG. 1 , according to the present invention, a capillary pipe having an inner diameter of 200 μm and an outer diameter of 360 μm is injected into the hollow fiber membrane (inner diameter: 400 μm outer diameter: 800 μm) made of polysulfone and having a size of 6 cm and an end closed using epoxy and then fixed using 1/32-inch fitting (model: F-125) offered from Upchurch Scientific Corp. Particularly, in the present invention, an acrylic module self-manufactured so as to be suitable for the outer diameter of the hollow fiber membrane is used in addition to using the 1/32-inch fitting (See the lower portion ofFIG. 1 ), but the module may be manufactured in various shapes so as to be suitable for the composition and flow rate of the used solvent in addition to the inner diameter and the outer diameter of the hollow fiber membrane. - The protein collected through the pump and sample injector is digested into peptides for about 30 minutes by the enzyme injected together with the protein. When molecular weights of the peptides are smaller than a molecular weight cutoff value of the hollow fiber membrane having a molecular weight cutoff value of 10 kDa, the peptides automatically pass through the hollow fiber membrane to thereby move and be concentrated in the reverse trapping column through the discharge hole. In the entire channel tubings used in the present disclosure, a capillary pipe having an inner diameter of 50 mm and an outer diameter of 360 mm is used in all of the connection tubings except for the injection/discharge tubing of the hollow fiber enzymatic reactor, and the connection tubing may be freely used according to mechanical properties.
- The peptides recovered through the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor are automatically and directly connected to a channel of a nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS apparatus through a channel change of the 10-port valve, and when the peptides are eluted according to the degree of hydrophobicity of the peptides through a nanoLC column filled with C18 according to a reverse solvent gradient, the eluted peptides are introduced into the tandem mass spectrometer through an electrospray ionization process, such that the peptides generated through the enzyme treatment process may be qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed.
- In addition, a direction of the channel of the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor is automatically changed due to the channel change of the 10-port valve, such that a washing process is performed on the proteins or enzymes used in enzyme treatment during a process of the nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS. Therefore, multi-dimensional enzyme treatment for proteins may be performed.

FIG. 5 shows tandem mass spectrometry results of bovine serum albumin (BSA, 65 kDa) peptides recovered through the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor, which is the enzyme treatment apparatus for protein using a hollow fiber membrane according to the present invention. A base peak chromatogram (BPC) of the nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS obtained by repeatedly performed a trypsin enzyme treatment process on the BSA protein three times is shown in a lower portion ofFIG. 5 , and MS/MS spectra of LFTFHADICTLPDTEK (m/z=926.20, [M+2H+]2+) peptide that is detected to be quantitatively low among the tandem mass spectrometry results confirmed in the lower portion ofFIG. 5 are shown in an upper portion ofFIG. 5 . - As shown in
FIG. 5 , it may be appreciated from analysis results of the BAS peptides generated through the enzyme treatment process of the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor that qualitative and quantitative reproducibility of the generated peptides were significantly high. In addition, as a result of the tandem mass spectrometry of each of the peptide mixtures, it may be confirmed that peptide sequence coverage of BAS was 99.1±1.0%, which shows that qualitative reproducibility due to reproducibility of enzyme treatment may be secured. - In more detail, the upper portion of
FIG. 5 shows the MS/MS spectra of LFTFHADICTLPDTEK (m/z=926.20, [M+2H+]2+) peptide eluted at 52.12 to 52.98 minutes among the peptides confirmed through the each of the nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS, and LFTFHADICTLPDTEK peptide is represented by a black dotted line in the BPC. As a confirmation result using protein database searching algorithm, all of the probability score values of data obtained from each of the three experiments were 120 or more, which means high reliability. Particularly, reproducible peptide qualitative analysis may be performed on LFTFHADICTLPDTEK peptide of which a concentration was commonly low in three repetitive analysis using the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor, such that it may be confirmed that the hollow fiber enzymatic reactor has high enzyme treatment efficiency. This result indicates that the hollow fiber enzymatic reactor has high applicability in qualitative-quantitative analysis of peptides generated due to low efficiency of the existing enzyme treatment apparatus for proteins. -
FIG. 6 shows nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS results analyzed using alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP), which is standard glycoprotein, as a result of applying the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor, which is the enzyme treatment apparatus for protein using a hollow fiber membrane according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, in multi-dimensional on-line glycoproteomics study. - Meanwhile, recently, various researches into glycoprotein as an importance indicator of researches into a technology of fining a biomarker related to human diseases have been conducted at home and aboard. As a biochemical feature of glycoprotein, glycoprotein has a structure in which glycan having various forms is linked to asaparagine N in amino acid sequences. Particularly, in these researches into glycoproteins, research for applying lectin proteins having a selective affinity for a specific glycan among several thousand protein mixtures has been conducted. In the present invention, on-line analysis of glycoprotein is performed using concanavalin A (ConA, 20 kDa) having a selective affinity to high mannose among the lectin proteins.
- In more detail, AGP as the standard glycoprotein peptide and ConA were injected to the hollow fiber enzymatic reactor using the micro pump and the sample injector, and as a result, non-glycopeptides that do not have an affinity for ConA lectin protein primarily passed through the hollow fiber membrane to thereby be automatically concentrated in the C18 reverse trapping column, and BPC and tandem mass spectrometry results of peptides collected through the channel change of the 10-port valve obtained by the nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS were shown in an upper portion of
FIG. 6 . - Further, after tandem mass spectrometry of primary non-glycopeptides, peptide N-glycosidase (PNGase), which is one of the N-linked endoglycosidases, was injected into the hollow fiber enzyme reactor through the sample injector. Binding sites of glycan and peptides of the N-linked glycopeptides bound to ConA to thereby not pass through the hollow fiber membrane were separated by addition of PNGase F, such that glycopeptides bound to ConA automatically passed through the hollow fiber membrane to thereby be concentrated in the C18 reverse trapping column, and BPC and qualitative analysis results of the peptides obtained by the nanoLC-ESI-MS-MS were shown in a lower portion of
FIG. 6 . - Qualitative and quantitative differences in BPC between glycopeptides and non-glycopeptides may be easily distinguished from the results shown in
FIG. 6 . Particularly, among peptides confirmed through PNGase F, a MS/MS spectrum of SVQEIQATFFYFTPN*KTEDTIFLR(m/z=1449.37, [M+2H+]2+), which is a glycosylation site reported through the existing studies, is shown as Example. - It may be confirmed from the above-mentioned results that the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor according to the present invention significantly contributes to research into glycoprotein. In addition, it may be confirmed that the on-line micro-hollow fiber enzymatic reactor may obtain reproducible result in research for fining glycoprotein biomarkers related to human diseases.
